Popular Nigerian music director and cinematographer, ThankGod Omori Smith, better known as TG Omori has opened up on why he stopped shooting for singer, Asake.

Recall that Omori and Asakes combo go way back to the hit-track Organize in 2022.

However, speculations spread when Asake opted another director for his most recent music videos.

In an interview on Zero condition podcast, TG clarified that there is no rancour between them and that he believes in giving people freedom to try out new things.

He stated that both him and Asake have done enough music videos and that the singer is ˜working with a very creative guy now.

He said, Even husband and wife dey divorce, people do have a break. I think we have done enough, we have done like 12 videos. We are still very cool. You know it is a business and at the end of the day, you have to respect your clients decisions.

I like when artistes have the freedom to try out new things. I dont want because we are guys you must shoot with me. I dont know why that happened.

To me it is crazy love because me and YBNL are forever. And you know how me and Olamide ˜go like way back, and Olamide is a type that makes sure that everybody eats. And before I came, he was working with other directors and he gave me the opportunity to also do my thing.

So hes working with a very creative guy now. A very good guy thats doing well too. Thats Olamide for you. And if I take that personal, then I have messed up. (Vanguard: Text, Excluding Headline)
